I have only been here once so far last time I was in Anacortes. Maybe my expectations were too high from all the glowing reviews. They did have a large selection of donuts to choose from and the prices were about on par with other donut shops. As far as quality, I did like their donuts. There was absolutely nothing wrong with them. But they were nothing out of the ordinary or over the top amazing like some reviews have stated. Just my opinion! The other this that surprised me was that the interior was really tiny, the seating area felt run down and dreary. I wouldn't choose to sit down and eat there personally. Overall, good donuts for if you are in town. I don't know that I would make a special trip though. read more

Great donuts and a nice surprise after seeing a disappointing "breakfast" at our Anacortes hotel. They could use a better selection of coffee fixins though. We'll definitely return the next time we're in town. read more

My primary complaint is that there is something SERIOUSLY wrong with the oil they use. It is either rancid or maybe they flavor it with fish. Im not sure If I have ever been so grossed out, and I couldnt get the taste out of mouth after one nibble from a fritter. Or maybe they buy recycled oil from Bob's Chowder house? Also, the people that work there do not seem happy nor are they friendly. Be prepared to pay 25c for paying with a card. Selection is very poor around dinner time, and was told that new donuts wouldnt start being available until 10pm. Wont be back, unless im trying to poison someone. read more

I say it again, I LOVE this place. My Port Townsend mom and I went here with a few people to grab ice cream after coming back from the San Juans, on the lovely, Adventuress. Although I am Lactose Intolerant, there was a bakery as well. I got a bearclaw, and the guy who was behind the cashier was Asian and striked up a conversation with me.He was friendly, and conversed with me in Chinese. He also as where my parents were from,something a typical Asian would ask. The outside seating was comfy. I sat on the bench as I said good-bye to all my little shipmates. read more

I have been stopping in at the Donut House for years, nearly every time I find my way to Anacortes or the Skagit Valley. They have just about every standard donut type here. These are some of the best donuts you'll find anywhere. They all seem to be super-sized. I usually go for the blueberry fritters, which are about the size of a dinner plate. Excellent coffee, I think it is from Fidalgo Bay Coffee Roasters. Indulge yourself, make this your morning stop to start your day touring the area. read more

Donut House - Best dang donuts here. - Donuts Near Me - Anacortes, Washington

I have heard nothing but good things about this place. I decided to take my family and experience the donuts for myself. Everything I heard was true. Best donuts in town. Fresh, light and delicious. I'd recommend these donuts to anyone. Hard to find a good fresh donut in town. This is the place. read more

Donut House - The apple and blueberry fritter look amazing. - Donuts Near Me - Anacortes, Washington

WOWWWW...absolutely superb donuts! I got a custard filled maple bar and a custard filled chocolate icing donut and both were amazing. Lots of custard, great texture, and flavorful icing on both. I will be going back to try more...no...all of the donuts no more Safeway donuts for me! read more

I'm really wavering between 3 and 4 stars here. On the plus side, they have some delicious looking donuts! The 2 I have tasted have had great flavor. Now why I can't give them 5 stars. Of the 2 I have tasted, one was still doughy inside (undercooked.) The man who helped me was very impatient, rushing me into making a decision within a minute or two of walking in. I'd never been there before and sort of wanted a chance to look, but he was pushy, impatient, and never smiled. And my last issue is with pricing. I don't recall exact prices, but it was around $3-$4 per premium donut. I got 7 donuts and it came to $12? There was no indication on the menu that there was any kind of dozen/half dozen pricing so I'm confused. Maybe I hit them on an off day. I'll certainly go again, but I'll know (sort of) what I'm walking in to! Update: From my first visit, I probably would have downgraded them to two stars. I had one donut that was undercooked and two that were burned black on the bottom. But I went back before returning home and got some to bring to my husband and those were much better. The grumpy man wasn't there, but still no smiling (one person in back smiled at me when she was summoning another worker to come take my order, but nobody taking orders has smiled at me yet) and nothing that I would call customer service of any sort. So the donuts are somewhere between 2 and 5 stars, depending on the day apparently. Customer service is non-existent, so 0 stars there. read more

Ordered a maple Bavarian and old fashioned. Both the texture and taste were fantastic! The drive thru is a great idea and the employees were very nice and friendly. read more

This was our second time here... Visiting from out of town. These are the BEST donuts I've ever had. I crave them!! Every donut I've tried has been delicious. read more

Donut House - Best apple fritter!! - Donuts Near Me - Anacortes, Washington

How was the Donut House? That is the question...it's PHENOMENAL! Well, what happened was...it's was a Saturday night, about 8:45 PM and I say, "I want some donuts." Naturally, I didn't have any donuts in the house and my loving husband says, "We should go to the Donut House tomorrow and get some." Well, it's not like it's just down the road; we live about 45 miles North of Anacortes, WA and I said, "Nah, that's OK, I'll be fine without them." Oh no, that would never work for him; it was like he had been waiting for a reason to go get these donuts and I said the magic words, "I want." The next morning we got up, got dressed and drove down in the drizzly rain for donuts--it was a decision I will never regret. We parked and went in to this delightful donut heaven on earth and made our order. Mind, you there are only the two of us and we got 8 of the most ginormous, fresh, tasty fried dough that dreams are made of. There is no way I could say which one was my favorite from the humble glazed traditional ones, the blueberry fritter, the strawberry fritter or the almond bar thing. They are so GOOD and I WILL drive-in the rain, sleet, snow or hail for these tasty delights! No, we didn't eat all of them and I put them in the freezer to enjoy at a later date. read more

first visit in at least 10 years. nice to see the place still there. two maple glazed old fashions were a bit larger than krispy kreme, but the $5 price was a shock. dining partner mentioned prices were posted, but i didn't look upward at the signage, just down at the case. we had missed breakfast, lunch, and no food service on the SJ ferry, so were basically starving. the donuts were a stopgap until dinner a couple hours away down whidbey island, and were just fine for 3pm. but not $30 a dozen fine. should have ordered one apple or blueberry fritter and split it. read more

My cousin recommended this spot and I'm beyond thankful. We purchased a dozen of amazing doughnuts and they are seriously heavenly. The best i have ever had! read more

Go for the doughnuts not for the coffee. Doughnuts are huge and always fresh. If you want a sugary doughnut treat, this is the place to go. read more

I don't how they do it, but they make the best maple bar I've ever had. They're so good! Everything else is great of course!

I've lived in anacortes 13yrs, been to the donut house lots. Today my kid bought 2 apple fritters brought em home. We both spit out the first bites, They tasted old, real old. Dried out no flavor old. I took them in, to get replacements, The oriental lady i couldn't understand waved the husband over who was cooking and he through a fit. started sayin stuff in a language i didn't understand. i complimented his donuts and said these must be old. Which pissed him off more. He said 7 dollars , the lady gave me back 7 dollars...the receipt said 7.25 the guy said you took a bite started speakin in another language again. walked away...WTF this place is old news...needs to go... read more

Just ok. Never seem happy to sell donuts. Good flavor but are dry and are over cooked. Always. Drip coffee sucks, go to anywhere else for that.... Only game in town. Don't know why there are so many hyped reviews. read more

Fresh, good tasting, great selection, great value, open 24 hours. This is the go-to place when visiting Anacortes or the San Juans. Berry bow-tie or glazed buttermilk bar with a cold chocolate milk. Breakfast of champions. Fat champions but champions all the same. read more

I gave them three stars because the dounuts are great and I go there everytime I'm in town to visit my grandkids but they do not know the meaning of customers service, they are just plan flat out rude, business must be good because they don't care about repeat business, if I ever go back I will send someone else in to order. I worked in retail for 38 years and would have been fired if I treated customers like they do. read more

On a Sunday drive we stopped for a donut. I'm glad we did, it was delicious. I had the angel cream donut. Yummy! My friends had donuts too, not sure which ones, but they were happy with them. They seemed to have a good selection and the service was pretty friendly though it seemed a little stand offish and the coffee was meh, they need to up their coffee game. On the whole though the donut was really great and that's what a donut shop should be all about. Great donuts. read more

Let's see. I like the Old Fashion donuts with all different kinds of glazes. The cake donuts with sprinkles are good. The fritters are good. The service is often lacking a bit, but the donuts make up for it. This is a huge step ahead of Safeway donuts. They are open all hours of the night and day. They are wheelchair accessible as well, which having recently been in a wheelchair made me deeply appreciate businesses that bother to cater to that. read more

Yes, the donuts and fritters are big, but they are also inedible. We got an apple and blueberry fritter that tasted like old oil. We literally couldn't eat them and threw them away, along with the weak, watery espresso. Pretty much like throwing $10 in the garbage. read more

These were the best doughnuts my husband and I have ever had! They are so delicious! We are visiting the area and wanted some coffee and something to eat. We saw it while passing through town and are so glad we stopped by! We got an Almond Bearclaw, a Blueberry Cream Cheese Bowtie, a maple bar, and a Baravarian Cream Chocolate bar. All were gigantic and amazing! We will stopping back one more time before heading home! read more

So let me just start by saying that I'm pretty picky about my donuts and will quite happily debate the merits of Blue Star vs Voodoo with Portland friends. Having said that this place ranks up there! Not super notable from the outside it's just a little shop about 15 minutes from the San Juan ferry terminal. They're also open 24/7 which makes them very convenient. My personal fav was the Chocolate Old Fashioned but almost everything looked great including the giant Buttermilk Bars. The size is even more impressive when you realize most items are only 2-3$. I'd def go back the next time I'm in the area. read more

Stopped in back in September on a Saturday morning for the first time. The donuts we got were tasty (bowtie and cream filled), and service was totally fine. read more

great donuts no break if you buy by dozen expensive donuts i mean its just a donut!! why are they so expensive??

It's a hit and miss. The selection they offer is impressive. The product can either be perfect or greasy and overcooked, like burnt crispy fritters. I couldn't eat mine, it was nauseating. However, when they have the bow ties, (blueberry cream are my favorite), they are wonderful. The biggest problem though is being consistent with keeping the case full. It's often empty. I like that it's open 24/7 but it's no good with nothing to sell. Oyster Run weekend they were absolutely NOT prepared. As far as customer service, they are nice but communicating to broken english can be frustrating. read more

Stopped for a donut on the way to the ferry. The best donuts I've had. The blueberry fritters were amazing! read more

Donut House - Donuts Near Me - Anacortes, Washington

We went with some friends who raved about how good the donuts were. We stopped at 730 on a Saturday night and there were only 6 donuts in the place. No one was making donuts either. For a place that is open 24/7 you would think they would have a fresh supply. Really disappointed. read more

Absolutely adore this place. Great donuts for a great place. It is wheel chair accessible, and there is minimal seating. Definitely a hidden gem! read more

I am going to warn you right now that I am a total donut whore. I am not even sure what that means, but somehow it just makes sense to me. I have a total weakness for donuts and will travel great distances, from time to time, to satisfy my need for this fatty goodness. I lived in Anacortes several years ago and discovered this place then. I make a pilgrimage now and again, when I decide it's ok to ignore my gluten intolerance and treat myself. They make the donuts fresh all day and have a nice variety, including some monster size donuts. You can definitely share these, but I won't guarantee that you will want to. I believe that most donut spots are better at some dough's than others, i.e. cake, raised or old fashioned and make my recommendations accordingly. With that said, the only type of donut I would avoid here would be the old fashioned. Too dry, no real defining flavor. More like a cake donut turned old fashioned. However, it's game on for every other donut in the joint. I don't say that about just anywhere. Although I am typically a raised donut kind of a gal, I have really enjoyed the cake and buttermilk donuts here. They make this huge buttermilk donut with some kind of jelly filling that you shouldn't bother tasting unless you are prepared to have more than a bite. Another one is a chocolate cream filled donut. Genius! If they have one when you stop by and you love chocolate creaminess as much as I do, love yourself and have one. When it comes to donut fillings I have not found another place that comes close to this place. I usually just like bavarian cream, but all of the fillings here are excellent, even the ones I typically don't like. The fillings include vanilla creme, chocolate, mocha, the jellys and the bavarian cream which I thought I liked it until I had it here; I LOVED it. Pull aparts, crullers, fritters, cinnamon rolls... all yummy. I heart The Donut House. read more

These are the largest and freshest donuts I think I have ever had. I tried a blueberry fritter. The blueberry fritter was terrific. Sweet, moist inside, fresh, crunchy outside! The maple and chocolate bars are about 50% wider than what one would get at a normal donut store. The service is very friendly. They have a drive through and I think are open 24/7! This is one place that you could get addicted to! read more

I am a tourist visiting and I was treated horribly by the staff. Supplies were not maintained and the seating area was dirty, but the cashier treated me so disrespectfully it really soured my opinion of Anacortes. This was such a negative experience I don't think I will bring my family to the area again. Local establishments should really strive harder to create a welcoming environment. TAKE YOUR TOURIST DOLLARS ELSEWHERE! read more

The donuts are good and the croissants are decent but the young women working here are so incredibly rude I will never come here again. The first one actually said to me "what do you want" while looking at her phone! Not what can I get for you, not what would you like, but what do you want like I was interrupting her text conversation. They just seem like they can't be bothered. Soooo much actual audible huffing and puffing. Gross. Get it together bitches. read more

I've been there only two times. One at night and they had NO donuts. I mean don't bother being open all night if your not going to even have donuts. And the service was awful. The man could barely speak any English nor could he understand us. We went there another time during the day and they didn't have any donuts! The girl was really snobby and told us they would have donuts later that night at midnight. MIDNIGHT?!?! We were here at midnight the other day and you had no donuts. Not worth my time and not worth how expensive it is. My tip for your business, hire people who won't make a bad experience for your guest, actually have donuts, lower the price, and don't be open all night long. read more

I love this place! The angel cream bar is amazing. I get it every time. The doughnuts are always soft and have the perfect ratio of doughnut to filling or frosting. The coffee is not always the best. read more

Best donuts I've had in Washington. Had a chocolate custard filled and a blueberry bear claw both so good I had to eat them all at once. They where fresh, soft, great flavor. Worth the two hour drive. read more

The Donuts from Donut House are amazing. The iced cinnamon bun is my favorite, and it's so huge you have to share. When my family comes to visit from North Carolina, the first thing they want is a donut from Donut House. There are occasions when we have to leave town early in the morning or late at night to catch a flight. It's wonderful to pop in here and grab a donut and some coffee. I love the fact they're open 24 hours! read more

Donut House is a weekly occurrence in our family! Best options are in the earlier part of the day before all the favorites are bought. Tasty! read more
